<DIV>Hello to the best of my knowledge you don't need a permit to
protest in front of the establishment in which there is an issue
with things like that I believe only involve union places,contracts,etc. Take
care</DIV>

<BR><BR>Does anybody know if our chapter needs a permit to assemble inn a

would have<BR>to go through their towns. Anyway, please correct if I am

Presidents] Finding a Way to Make a<BR>Difference<BR><BR>Terry:<BR><BR>I'm
going to re-post your questions and my responses to them.<BR><BR>1.
How will we get to our respective Good Will Store? Will vans
be<BR>provided?<BR>Response: Maybe. Maybe not. Where would you
expect vans to meet us? Were<BR>you hoping for them to pick people up at
their houses like school buses?<BR><BR>2. How will the
lumber be procured and who will staple the signs to the<BR>lumber? Surly, you
don't expect us to go out and shop for 4 foot pieces of<BR>lumber and staple
the signs to the 4ft of lumber. Some of us are totally<BR>blind nor do we have
significant others to assist us.<BR>Response: How is eyesight a requirement
for shopping for lumber? Why is<BR>vision required to staple signs to
pieces of lumber? I can understand why<BR>individuals might not want to
bear the costs of the lumber, but I don't<BR>understand why eyesight or
significant others assisting us would be<BR>necessary. I've done this
kind of thing before and never needed a<BR>significant other to
help.<BR><BR>3. I have a good will store right on Town
line Rd., right in back of<BR>Stop&Shop. Is this our protest
site?<BR>Response: It is a protest site, but not necessarily the only
one. As the<BR>communications from national have said, we need to be
present at all<BR>Goodwill stores in the United States. Yours is most
likely not the only one<BR>in Connecticut, so not all Connecticut affiliate
protesters would be going<BR>to your store...unless it is the only Goodwill
store in Connecticut.<BR><BR>4. Who is the site
coordinator for our site.<BR>Response: Good question. I'm sure
Beth and the rest of the state board are<BR>actively looking for people to
take on those roles. If you want to help,<BR>offer to
help!<BR><BR>5. Where is our site?<BR>Response: Another
good question. I bet the one right near you is a good one<BR>to be your
site, but the communications from national said that we would be<BR>protesting
at all Goodwill locations in the United States.<BR><BR>I have not had a
planning role in these protests, but I am quite simply<BR>regurgitating
information that I have read in the mass communications from<BR>national that
we all received. Some of my responses have simply been<BR>philosophical
reactions to questions that seem to underestimate the<BR>competence of blind
people. We really can perform these normal tasks if we<BR>have the right
skills and training.<BR><BR>I hope that helped.<BR><BR>Yours in

Chapter President<BR><BR>Anil,<BR>Hi, hope this finds you happy and well.<BR>I
have a comment on one of our chapters regarding the upcoming
Goodwill<BR>protest. Dorothy Robinson, Chapter President of our south Central
Oklahoma<BR>Chapter contacted me today to inform me that there was no Goodwill
Thrift<BR><BR>Store in her city. However, she also let me know that her
chapter had all<BR>agreed to take the flyers to each of the respective members
churches to<BR>distribute and educate their city about sub-minimum
wages.<BR>Dorothy also took it upon herself to find a chapter where she will
be on the<BR>weekend that we conduct the protest. Her son and daughter live in
Arlington<BR>TX. Dorothy contacted the Texas Affiliate to find the Arlington
Chapter and<BR>find out where she can help.<BR>Dorothy is a fantastic example
of practicing what we believe and preach I<BR>hope to see her on the news in
Texas!<BR><BR>Jeannie<BR><BR>Jeannie Massay, President<BR>National Federation
